Oh my {$diety} this is scary, although not necessarily surprising. A woman who started using a tanning bed twice a day at age 14 developed cancer after 7 years of abusing her skin this way. Recently, she passed away from skin cancer at age 29.
Zita Farrelly began using a sunbed at the age of 14 and saved up to buy one when she landed her first job.
For seven years she had tanning sessions twice a day. When her worried mother stopped her using the sunbed more than twice a week she borrowed a friend’s.
I’m guessing her friend might look at this and think something like “I helped cause that.” At least, I know I would.
